Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang. I’m afraid that I need the layer on that position and text flowing around the layer. Is there no way to do place a MP graphic on a certain position and make the text flow around it? Sorry for insisting, but it surprises me that such a basic need seems impossible with ConTeXt.

Remove “position=yes” when you want the layer on a certain position on the page but don’t expect the text to flow around the layer.

Is there no way to place that layer exactly 8mm from left page border and 110mm from top page border? I really need the layer in that position (otherwise it doesn’t make sense).

[NTG-context] issue with layers and layouts
Dear list, I have the following sample and two issues that I must solve: \showframe\setuplayout[margin=20mm, width=fit, topspace=45mm, bottomspace=25mm, height=fit] \definelayout[first][topspace=70mm, bottomspace=30mm] \definelayer[avoidasfloat][x=0mm, y=0mm, hoffset=8mm, voffset=101mm, location={right,bottom}, state=start] \setlayer[avoidasfloat]{\startMPcode draw (0mm,0mm)--(55mm,0mm) ; draw (0mm,0mm)--(0mm,-86mm) ; draw (0mm,-86mm)--(55mm,-86mm) ; draw (55mm,-86mm)--(55mm,0mm) ; \stopMPcode } \setupbackgrounds[page][background={avoidasfloat}] \starttext \dorecurse{40}{\input knuth\par} \stoptext First, the layout is right on the first two pages, but it is wrong from page three. The text doesn’t reach the bottom frame. I have the info on multiple layers from the wiki (it isn’t a complete example, though). After Wolfgang’s reply last Friday, I spend hours searching on the mailing list trying to find relevant information to know what I was doing wrong. If this isn’t a bug, what am I missing here? My second question is about the layer: is there no way to force the text to avoid it as if it were a float?
